撮磨（上纂活蒼活二反廣雅云撮持也應\[辟-辛+力\]注漢書亦三指撮也禮記孔子云今大地一撮土之多是也此言水之聚沫浮幻虛脆不可撮持而磨也說文從手最聲下莫何反）。

> Cuō-mó 撮磨 (The first character has the two fanqie readings 纂活 and 蒼活. The Guangya says: “Cuō 撮 means to hold.” Ying Shao's commentary to the Hanshu also states: “It means pinching with three fingers.” In the Liji, Confucius says: “The great earth at present is just the abundance of a pinch (撮) of soil,” which is this. Here it refers to the gathered foam of water, floating, illusory, empty, and fragile, which cannot be gathered and ground. The Shuowen jiezi says: “It is derived from 手 ('hand') with 最 as the phonetic element.” The second character has the fanqie 莫何.)
